During the delay, while Corinne’s mouth was healing, she spent an afternoon with Sultan. They were really happy to see each other.

She took a short, bare-back ride with him, but when they returned, Corinne was worried. Sultan was limping. It turned out that a person who had ridden Sultan to exercise him while Corinne was away at Christmas had lost control and injured the horse. The vet said he couldn’t be ridden again for months.
